− | Minimac3 can output files in both <code>VCF</code> format and <code>.dose</code> format (usual [http://genome.sph.umich.edu/wiki/Minimac minimac] output format). By default, Minimac3 will only output in <code>VCF</code> format and users must use the handle <code>--doseOutput</code> to output in <code>.dose</code> format or the handle <code>--hapOutput</code> to output dosage data in phased format.

− | The handle <code>--processReference</code> is used to ONLY convert reference panels from <code>VCF</code> format to [[#M3VCF Files|<font face=Courier>M3VCF</font>]] format (and save parameter estimates). NO imputation will be performed and thus NO target/gwas haplotypes are required. However, by default, parameter estimation will be done using the reference panel and the estimates will be saved in the <code>M3VCF</code> files. Users should use <code>--rounds 0</code> in order to opt out of parameter estimation and only compress the reference panel and save it as a <code>M3VCF</code> file.
